Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
These cookies are so delicious. I used to make them for the Primary kids in our ward on General Conference Sunday as a reward for watching conference.

They should be soft and moist. Don't let them brown in the oven or they will be dry. One batch makes about 35 cookies.
